((A time skip is fine with me, Katsa. Also, I won't post again until I can put both Carina and Noah in the same post, just so I can get it all together.))

Silents ears flicked in frustration as the creatures lips moved, making words that he was unable to hear, but able to read. The males eyes locked onto Kodah's lips and his light eyes squinted as he slowy reversed his words and tryed to make them into a understandable sentence.

So far, Silent had only read 'Sorry' and some other words that looked very much like 'Festival'. Silent breathed in, annoyed with not  being able to hear the creature, and he knew only one way he could communicate was to talk, but since he had kept his voice hidden for seven years, he was not sure if he acctually had a voice.

"Whut's d'you say, creature?" He said in a rusty and a little croaky tone as if he had recently had a sore throught from coughing too much. His voice viabrated his neck and he realised that his tone of voice was far to dusty. He realised he was very much thirsty. His head ducked and he suddenly barked into Kodah's ear, gaining to all fours and towering over the young male as he sat on the floor. "W-water plea-se" Silent wheezed as his dry vocal cords begged for moisture. His source of water was usualy a small lake back near the kings village and that was a far to long of a walk and he knew there was most likely to be a tap around here, but he did not want to wander alone, especially after he caused chaos with a man and his cart horse.

Silent had finally talked, but to a stranger who had disturbed him. Silent was not really sure if he could trust such a young 'thing', But he could not talk anymore at the moment. His voice needed moisture and if he talked, his throught would become sore.

(I am so sorry for the shortness! I have many roleplays to write for at the moment. I hope this is okay.)

After Carina had left, Raven remained at the inn for awhile longer, first finishing a meal before heading upstairs to her room. There she remained until the sun was just peering over the horizon, getting ready for sleep. From her window she could see the paper-lanterns being lit, a variety of colors, above the little village with people mingling below. The window was open, and though noise drifted to her ears it was much more hushed and muffled, as if the people were keeping themselves more silent to avoid disrupting the peace that came with the night. All of the tents were set up, a few Entertainers doing tricks and plays for their audiences. Speaking of which, Raven had to head down soon. She wasn't quite looking forward to doing her part, attention just wasn't her thing, and using her magic for the amusement of others was just another reason for her to dislike the thought. But she had promised to do her part, and besides it couldn't be all that bad. She did enjoy using her magic, and doing small tricks and illusions would do her health some good.

Grasping her staff that leaned against the wall beside her, Raven was dressed in a robe more fitting for the festivity. It was of a dark, indigo color, and all along it were swirls of black floral patterns. With all of her supplies within said robe, Raven was ready. The mage closed the window to her room, and walked out.

((Tried making it as best of a time skip I could haha. Sorry it took awhile!))

Kodah began feeling nervous as the wolf before him seemed to be getting more agitated rather than calming down. Was he being offensive? During the pause that had followed, the small brownie began pulling himself up more properly, though remained sitting until he was sure it was safe. However, he became even less comfortable when the wolf suddenly rose, eyes glancing up at the towering figure as his ears pinned back.

"Huh?" One of the ears flicked back forward to catch what it was the wolf was saying, surprised that he (judging from the voice) could speak. But it was a bit difficult to make out, as if he had swallowed a whole gallon of gritted sand and hadn't drank a thing ever since. After decoding it, though, Kodah understood what it was he was saying, and his eyes rounded in realization. "Oh, water? Yeah, hang on." Flipping over, the brownie searched around the little alleyway for anything that could be holding the liquid.

There, near the other end of the wall, was a small well where the inn got their water from. Smiling brightly, Kodah rose on his back paws and began running toward it, gesturing for the wolf to follow him. "Here we are, Zale has the freshest water off all the land," the furry creature chuckled as he hopped on top of the well, turning the knob at the side in circles to raise the bucket. When it was within reach, Kodah grasped the book and pulled it to the edge, before lowering it again on the ground. "There you go."

((I'm going to wait a day or so for Amber to she if she can come and post, and if not I will. Hope you all had a good Christmas ^^))

(Hi guys ^^" I was gone for the holidays but I'm back. We did a time-skip, yes?)

Amber sat at a table in the inn, the carved wood made of near-by trees, stick out small sharp pieces ready to poke someone who was unknowing. Her red-ish hair fluttered down her shoulders, just slightly touching the bottom of her shoulder blades. Amber sipped some of her drink she's ordered from the innkeeper sometime ago but never started drinking it. Her amber eyes loomed around the room, it was quiet and only a few conversations were heard.

"Hey there pretty lady." a man said behind Amber. Amber reached into her small sack and griped a dragger just incase. "A Hello would be nice, not sneaking up." Amber said to the man as he started to walk around the table to sit on the other side. The man gave a laugh "Pardon me miss, my name is Dan." he said to Amber. Amber gave a smirk at Dan. "I'm not interested in what ever you want. Now get." Amber said to Dan quietly as she still kept held of the dagger in her little sack. Dan cracked a smirk at Amber "I don't want anything Ma'am. I just want a conversation." Dan said to her. "That's wanting. Now as I said again, get." Amber said, her tone tight and rough. But Dan sat and shook his head and gave a snicker "Aren't you the smart one Miss..." Dan said stopping as he didn't know Amber's name. "Amber. Don't over use it, Dan." She said to him. Dan nodded "Very nice name, Ma'am. May I ask what's in the sack?" The man asked trying to peer into it. Amber defensively drew the sack closer to her "Nothing you need to see. Besides it's mine, no one needs to see inside it." Amber told him as she released her hand from the sack.

After Dan had babbled on about things with Amber butting into the conversation Dan looked at Amber once more. "So are you staying here?" He asked her. Amber rolled her eyes, Why else would she be here? "Yeah, why do you want to know?" Amber asked the man as she narrowed her eyes. "No reason..." Dan said with an evil smirk. Amber became agitated "Why don't you leave?" Amber said as she put her small sack on the table, narrowing her eyes at Dan. Dan shook his head "What's wrong Pretty Lady?" Dan said. Amber gave a growl and revealed her dagger "Still wanna stay at this table or will you leave without a scratch?" Amber threatened. Dan widened his eyes as he saw the daggers "I-I'll leave, but what do you need those for?!" Dan said getting up, shielding his face. "Nothing you need to know, now get!" Amber growled as she stood up her hand gripped around the dagger in her sack. Dan slowly left the inn with Amber watching slowly. Amber gave a smirk "And stay out..." she whispered to her-self as Amber sat back down to finish her drink.

(Derp :3)

((Oh my god, I lost my whole post because FH logged me out >.< Sorry this is taking so long, I'm gonna have to re-type it.))

As soon as Carina was free from the relentless noise of the inn, she made a beeline for her gelding, who was now relaxing in the sun with his eyelids drooping sleepily. "Hey, no time for slacking off," she murmured as she reached the palomino's side, stroking down his solid neck and strong shoulders, only to frown when something orange and sticky clinging to the soft hairs of his muzzle caught her attention. Carina's nose immediately wrinkled in disdain, recognising it as some sort of candy-like substance the children must have smeared across his muzzle when they came to give him some attention. Though the gelding didn't seem to mind, the orange stuff was already beginning to harden in the warmth of the sunlight, and the cleric was forced to use her fingers to peel it from his muzzle, ending up with it all over her fingertips and under her nails instead. "Damn kids," she muttered with a roll of her eyes, never having a liking for children herself, trying to scrape off the orange substance from her own fingers. "Why can't you go and bite anyone who comes near you like King Jair's brute does?"

Speaking of the King, Carina realised that she was in fact meant to be observing the events of the festival, not standing around picking something sticky and orange from the muzzle of her horse. First and foremost, she did need a new place to tether her gelding, out of the way of nosy little children. Releasing him from his tether and grasping his reins firmly in her hand, the cleric's gaze swept over the area to find a suitable place to let her gelding rest. It wasn't long before, over to the west side of the clearing, there was a particular cluster of trees that provided an adequate amount of shade in the diminishing light of the late afternoon, and there was a long bed of grass that the palomino would enjoy grazing on. Turning to remove the metal bit from his mouth in advance, the duo then skirted around the hub of the festival to the small, shaded area, where the gelding was safely re-tethered and left to graze for the rest of the evening.

Giving her gelding a final pat in a temporary departure, Carina plunged back into the crowds with the intentions of milling around until it came time for the entertainment to start. With a small pouch of coins attached to the pretty belt she was wearing around her waist, the cleric knew she had some money to spare and made haste for the lines of stalls around the clearing, keen to see what was on display for Zale's first-ever festival. Unfortunately, she had only reached the second stall when one of the seller's recognised her as royal blood with "lots of money to throw around", and began to call to her with bribes and promises of discounts of she brought something from then. But Carina was having nothing of it, and kept her unwavering gaze on the items for sale only as she passed, head held high. She was above bribes and discounts, if she liked something she would pay it in full, and only if she liked it.

She passed stall upon stall, occasionally pausing to eye a glimmering necklace or run a gorgeous silk scarf through her fingers, but there was nothing here for her. Although it was clear the people of Zale were talented craftsmen in their own respect, and put on a good sale with reasonable prices too, and Carina would have to remember this for the next time she visited. It was guaranteed to be no where near as busy, but she was sure that the seller's who made the best profit here would stick around for a while longer. The cleric made a particular point of remembering the scarf lady, who had some exquisite accessories on sale.

By the time the late afternoon had rolled over into early twilight, the temperature dropping a little from a pleasant warmth to a crisp air, Carina knew she wouldn't be able to buy anything now, and made plans to go around and observe the entertainment. It was likely that Raven was still getting ready for hers, as it was tradition for the magic to start when it was a little more dark, and in the mean time occupied herself by watching the sword-swallowers, fire-eaters and various acrobatic acts. They were all very well-done, and Carina found herself clapping in appreciation at every one of them.

Time passed too quickly, and before the cleric knew it, the sky was beginning to darken a little more. Time for the show, she thought to herself, and clasped her hands behind her back towards the largest entertainment area, set up for the magic-user of the night. Although it was Carina herself who had convinced Raven to go along with this (or so she thought), there was still something that made her suspicious about the mage. Really, she couldn't trust the dark-haired lady any further than she could throw her, and that made her a threat to everyone. Although Carina remained optimistic that tonight's performance would go well, a little corner of her mind had its doubts, and was making that doubt loud and clear.

*~*~*~*~*

The corner of Noah's mouth twitched in annoyance as he was noticed after all, though he made no move to retreat just yet, and instead narrowed his bright eyes upon the man sitting on his bed. It was clear that he was in pain, almost certainly caused by the strange markings carved into his entire body, glowing with a bright red hue. Is this some kind of sorcery? Noah thought as he walked only a step closer, his gaze sweeping over the red-tinged body of the man. He felt like asking what the hell sort of trick was he playing at? Who was he, anyway? What did the markings mean? And why the hell were they glowing? But the mercenary got the idea that he probably wouldn't receive any answers, judging by the way the man had seemed to take the strong and silent approach. Fine, Noah thought, and as he buried his hands into the pockets of his pants, he gave the man one last look before moving downstairs to the ground floor of the inn.

The irresistible scent of food was still calling to his stomach as he reached the main part of the inn, and he intended on heading right into the festival to satisfy his hunger, when something caught his attention out the corner of his eye. Turning to the left, Noah caught sight of the lady who had been in the corridor looking at the man just before, but she now sported a totally different demeanor. Words that stung like thorns passed through her lips as she glared at the man beside her, looking like he was about to loose all that made him so manly when he bustled off in fear and humiliation. Noah smirked at the red-headed girl, thinking that he would give anything to have more ladies like her in the world, and leaned back against the bar with his arms folded across his chest to watch her for a moment.

It appeared that she was going to stay to finish her drink after all, which pleased Noah somewhat. As soon as he figured this out, he spun around smartly on his heel and called to the bartender with a piercing whistle, earning himself a glare and a muttered "I'm not a bloody dog." Still, he got his tankard of ale, and payed what he owed the bartender, and took the tankard by the handle. He thought he might go and see her, try out his own womanizing skills to see if he would come close to loosing his manhood like the previous bloke had.

Strolling casually over to the table next to Amber as if he was minding his own business, he set his ale down on the table and seated himself in the wooden chair, leaning back until it tilted off the ground slightly, folding his arms across his chest again and crossing his ankles comfortably under the table. He watched Amber out the corner of his eye, running a hand through his scruffy black hair to see if he would be noticed first, and if she was bold enough (or interested enough) to strike up a conversation. If she was, then great! Noah liked a lady who would take initiative and start the conversation herself. If not? That was okay too, Noah could do it himself just as easily. And if she left? Well, he would stay to finish his drink then find her later, as sure enough she would be sticking around for the entertainment Zale would provide for the night. Once his had his sights set on a woman to woo before the night was over, it was hard to shake him off. Amber was a fine woman indeed, Noah liked her already.

(XD I basically laughed when I read Noah's thoughts. I'll wait for a few more people to post before posting Amber again.)
